Xavier.

　　I winced in pain as a silver plated wing tore through my arm and I let howled loudly, leaping into the air and pulling the vampire by the wings. I smashed him to the ground and I sent my spears right through his heart.

　　I looked around me to see several dead bodies. Several dead werewolves lying on the earth that had become red and blood soaked. All I could here was the clashing of swords, snarls, howls and the cries of wounded soldiers.

　　I locked eyes with a vampire and he snarled at me, dashing towards me and slashing his silver plated wings at me. I roared and bent to the side, quickly using the chance to stun him with a punch before plucking out his hands with my bare hands.

　　The vampires outnumbered us and I watched my fellow wolfs get killed by the merciless savages. I looked to the right to see Lena fighting off two vampires and using her sword to counter their wings. We had long transformed back into our human form after so much forceful reverting and we were all completed naked.

　　My eyes darted to a vampire sneaking up behind her and I stabbed the two vampires beside me with my spears before rushing towards her to save her.

　　I ran with every speed in me and was so close to her when a vampire smashed me in the fave with his wings.

　　I went tumbling to the ground and I looked up to see the vampire send his wings through her heart.

　　“Lenaaaaaa!!!” I screamed. The next moment, I was no longer in that battlefield and I met myself in a open space.

　　I breathed in, trying to recover my breath. The smell of freshly cut grass drifted across the meadow with the clippings scattered over the turf. The branches of the giant oak tree swayed to and fro in the wind, shaking the leaves, so they fell like raindrops, their green color fading and replaced by patches of brown.

　　The weather seemed perfect as the sun was shining and no clouds were in sight. The meadow was spacious, with a collection of trees and bushes guarding the perimeter.

　　Before me was a gathering of thick white fogs and I couldn’t see into it or past it no matter how hard I tried. Suddenly I saw someone appear before me and I looked closer to see a lady standing before me. She looked like Lena and the same time looked like…..Valerie. She was smiling at me.

　　She stretched out her hands towards me and I stretched out my hands to receive hers. As I tried to grab her, she was being drawn backward and I kept moving closer towards her.

　　“Grab my hands,” she said and I ran forward to grab her hands but she was drawn backward even more. I tried again and she continued being drawn backward.

　　“Grab my hands?” She screamed and I ran forward, her screams dying out as she got sucked into the fog that became black.

　　I slowly opened my eyes and raised my head slowly as the door opened. I was tired and my body ached.

　　The injuries on my body refused to heal quickly since they were caused by silver and the silver chains strapped around my arms made it worse.

　　My head ached and even the sunlight made my eyes ache.

　　I saw that bad man walk into the room and I groaned in frustration. He had a wide grin and I wished I could knock that look off his face.

　　He really looked like he was enjoying all of this.

　　“So, let’s pick off from where we started,” he said and walked towards me.

　　“Just give up already,” I said with the little strength in me and he scoffed.

　　“I told you I don’t know anything!” I raised my voice although it only sounded like a plea because I was weak, “I don’t know where she is. We went in separate ways after we were attacked,” I added, hoping that he would at least be convinced and go without torturing me.

　　“I don’t really understand why you would make yourself suffer so much because of a lady,” he said and placed his both hands behind his back.

　　“You can really help yourself and avoid all of this by just telling me where she is,” he said with a persuasive voice.

　　“Once you tell me and it is confirmed, I’ll personally let you go and you can find another lady to sell your heart to,” he continued and I sighed, looking down.

　　He was only wasting his time. I wanted him to get on with the torture and then leave when he’s tired.

　　“You really don’t understand the mate bond, but I’m sure you have kids and you’ll do anything for them,” I said softly, “the mate bond is stronger than that in seven folds.” I continued and he scoffed.

　　“Plus, you’ll only arrest her too and leave me here forever. You don’t want your illegal activities being exposed,” I stated and he nodded.

　　“Fine, have it your way,” he said and walked towards the table at the end of the room. He opened the box and I stared at the shiny silver blades with fear of the pain to come.

　　He grabbed a whip with silver stretched out into thin wires.

　　He closed the box and walked towards me.

　　“One last chance to talk,” he said softly, but I remained silent and looked away from him.

　　He nodded and he went to stand behind me. I closed my eyes as I expected the whip to land on my back, but the door suddenly opened and I looked up to see a guard step in.

　　“Mr. Bale, there’s something you need to know,” he said and Bale walked towards the guard.

　　The guard whispered something into his ears, but I could manage to pick up a few words. Someone had broken into the facility.

　　Who could it be? Maybe Nexus Services and a lot of enemies. We might not be the only one with information about their illegal activities or it could just be criminals who wanted to break their partners out.

　　“We’ll continue with this later,” Bale said and dropped the whip on the box before following the guard out of the cell.

　　I sighed in relief and faced down back, closing my eyes to regain my strength.

　　I needed to find a way to get out of here. I wondered what the others that came with me here would be going through now.

　　Were they also being tortured. Nexus Services would want to know where their camp is.

　　I looked up as I heard a loud noise on the door. The door knob shook for a while before falling to the floor.

　　I watched the door open and my eyes widened in surprise as I saw Jenna step into the room.

　　“Jenna!”

　　I watched as Nathan also stepped in and someone else, a Vampire followed in.

　　“Nathan!”

　　“Yes, let’s get you out of here.”
